The cost may not be high - but be sure your attorney specializes in adoption disruptions...that is what this is - not simply a relative adoption. They are disrupting their placement to give you guardianship. There are agencies that specialize in these transitions and perhaps can give guidance - maybe even the agency they used to complete their adoption would have ideas.
Please find out more though...so much of what you said about how they seem to act and what they say about the child point to the fact that she could have emotional issues - attachment disorder being one of them - and this disruption will only set her back further. It could possibly be that there are million more behaviors than you see going on and they don't want to tell you...but if you are thinking about this you MUST know. I'm raising two AD kids and people outside my daily circle would describe me exactlly as you described them. I'm not saying I know anything about her - I don't...just saying to not go blindly into this. Have they sought therapy???
